Addendum to the previous

Just remembered that I can now include musical examples!  So I shall!

First, Carter Burwell's dark indie rock/minimalist score for Twilight.

Second, Alexandre Desplat's lovely romantic flutterings and yearnings for New Moon.

Third, Howard Shore's Hope and Memory, from The Return of the King, showcasing the poignant agitation I think fits the Twilight series, as well as the orchestration he likes to use of coming from a thick orchestral section to a very sparse texture with a solo wind (brass or wood) melodic line over it.

Fourth, Howard Shore's Shelob's Lair, also from The Return of the King, showing the darker horror/action music I think Eclipse will also bring.
